New Lemonheads - "No Backbone"

“It really sounds like The Lemonheads. Maybe a little better.” That's a tall order. But not if you're Evan Dando. After that false start last week Vagrant's giving the "let people listen to it" thing another go.

The Lemonheads - "No Backbone" (MP3)

“You should listen to the Descendents' Milo Goes To College to get an idea of what the next Lemonheads record sounds like," Dando continues. "I wanted to make a rock record, a melodic rock record. Also, I’m sick of selling solo T-shirts.”

OMG. It's 1992 all over again!

I'm not complaining, just saying. It's not bad.

This makes me want to skip 5th period to drive around and smoke with my boyfriend. Who else wants to go? I just need $1 for gas money.

Hot shit indeed. It does sound a little like Evan Dando singing for Dino Jr.... which if you think about it, would have been fucking awesome.

Raleigh-via-Eau Clair BTW Megafaun debuted impressively earlier this year with Bury The Square. The trio nip-and-tuck experimental tendencies (tape splicing, white noise colliding with banjo, junkyard-laced spring reverb, screeching feedback at the tail end of a quiet back porch lament)...

Premature Evaluation: of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping

Skeletal Lamping is anything but skeletal. When we took a close listen to album closer "Id Engager" we mentioned it wasn't the strangest, most ambitious, or best tune on of Montreal's new one, but after absorbing the other 14 tracks,...
